The University of Notre Dame’s Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) has embarked upon a new partnership with the American Indian Catholic Schools Network (AICSN).
The collaboration allows ACE to work with the staffs of five Catholic mission schools and help the 1,300 students and their families along their educational journeys.
“This is an opportunity that fits beautifully our mission of transforming Catholic schools, particularly for under-represented students,” said Rev. Timothy R. Scully, C.S.C., the Hackett Family Director of Notre Dame’s Institute for Educational Initiatives.
The schools serve students representing the Apache, Navajo, Blackfeet, Winnebago, Omaha, and Lakota peoples.
